We have a 1990s suburban home wiht attached garage, that we're now going to make into a game room. First step is to finish the walls -drywall, paint etc. WE were going to put in a ceiling too, but H believes that if we simply painted the exposed ceiling beams/studs, we'd get a nice urban look and save money along the way.
We're going to do an epoxy floor, and lots of storage cabinets - along wiht pool table, TV and sofa. I'm having a hard time picturing the ceiling. Has anyone done anything similar or have pictures to share?

Describe the roof structure or ceiling structure if there is a room above the garage. You will probably be required to insulate the walls and perhaps the roof or ceiling |

Congratulations on your project. You asked specificially about ceiling treatment, but there are also a host of other issues to convert an "exterior" space to a habitable one. Here's some thoughts about garage conversions: Floor slab: Is it solid with no cracks? Is it at house finish floor level or are you OK with a step down? Is it insulated below the slab and on stem walls? Are you in a climatic zone where winter coldness is a factor for the concrete slab? If so, floating a floor on sleepers (with insulation) above the top of the slab is an option. Walls: Will additional sealing of cracks and insulation be needed? Will new gyp board and trim be needed in some areas? Ceiling and roof: What sort of roof structure do you have? How will you insulate and vent the roof to prevent heat loss and moisture condensation/mold? You will likely be better served to have some sort of seperation between the habitable space below and the insulation/moisture barrier above which is usually not very visually attractive (what a ceiling usually does). Although I hate the look of a suspended ceiling, it may offer one inexpensive option for a new ceiling if the existing roof joists or trusses have uneven bottoms. Systems: How will you heat and cool the new space? Will you need to run new HVAC ducts, control wiring etc.? Will you need new electrical circuits, controls and a secondary panel? Need water and drainage? I'm sure you have thought through all of this, so pardon me if this is redundant. Good luck! |

I don't really know what you are trying to do. I don't know how the garage roof is constructed or what the climate is so I'm having just as hard a time as you are. You ask for pictures to share but you don't offer any. |

CT does not have a statute concerning CCW'ing where alcohol is served. But there is a state website (http://www.ct.gov/bfpe/cwp/view.asp?a=1252&q=254186) that says:
Q37. Does my permit to carry pistols and revolvers permit me to carry a handgun anywhere, anytime?
A. No. Mature judgment dictates that no handgun be carried unless carrying the gun at the time and place involved is prudent and proper in the circumstances. For example, handguns should not be carried:
1. Into a bar or other place where alcohol is being consumed.
2. In any situation involving stress such as an argument.
3. After consuming alcohol or any drugs other than those legally prescribed.
4. In any building where either State Senate or State House of Representatives is located, or in which the office of any legislator, employee, or committee is located, or where a committee of the State Legislature is holding a meeting.
5. Any building residential or commercial whose owner prohibits handguns.
So, when we go to a restaurant and I am carrying, I do not drink. I am ok with this as I am not violating statute, just some guidelines published by one of the bleeding heart liberals who run this State. We do not go to bars so that is a non-issue.

The Raspberry Pi Model A computer has gone on sale in the UK for £19.33 offering yet another chance to pick up the bare bones computer on the cheap.
The diminutive Raspberry Pi computer was set to have two SKUs, however the Raspberry Pi Foundation launched the higher specification Model B unit almost a year ago.
Now the foundation has brought the even cheaper Raspberry Pi Model A to market with RS Components selling the unit for £19.33 or $25, or you can get it for 50 pence cheaper at £18.88 from CPC.
The Raspberry Pi Model A has only 256MB of RAM, which is half of what the Model B has, but given that the original Model B also had the same amount of RAM and few complained it doesn't seem to be much of a downgrade.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation said that by stripping down other components it has managed to cut the power consumption, so the Model A uses just a third of the power compared to the Model B.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation said that the first batch of Model A computers will be available only in Europe, however RS customers in the US can place orders but will have to wait a while.
Eben Upton of the Raspberry Pi Foundation said, "We're really pleased to finally be able to offer the Model A board. The lower power consumption and reduced height make it a great fit for so many of the projects that people are building with their PIs."
"We're excited to be able to make access to computing available at the $25 price we have been aiming at since we incorporated The Raspberry Pi Foundation as a charity. This is the realisation of our long-standing ambition to provide the world with a $25 computer."
RS Components confirmed the Raspberry Pi Foundation's statement about shipping outside Europe, saying that there might be delays, but added that the delay in the US is due to, "final compliance certification".

autonomous Posts: 1,769sand bags in the trunk will provide you no benefit being it's a front wheel drive
How would 120 lbs. of sand in the trunk affect the driveability of the P5? Since it is a front wheel drive, wouldn't it help to "balance" the car as most FWD are front heavy? Most seem to be in the 60/40 weight distribution (60% on front wheels 40% on rear wheels)?
On the other hand, my understanding is that in the winter adding weight to the back to offset the heavy front would not be advantageous in many cases since you want the front wheels to grip and go.
Also, driving with an extra 120 lbs. is likely to affect the fuel economy. -
cameramatt Posts: 32
iamz Posts: 542Just an update to my post a couple of months ago about my ABS not working. Turns out it was nothing more than low brake fluid. The odd thing is that it wasn't really that low. I had checked the fluid level before and it was at about the mid point between the min and max marks, so I figured no big deal. Well apparently it is. There must be a sensor in the reservoir that is a little overly sensitive to fluid level. After I topped it off the light cleared and the ABS has been functioning normally for a few weeks now.
So, keep your fluid at the max level. -

guyrob Posts: 5I just replaced the original Dunlops at 57 K with Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S. I chose a bigger tire, at 205/55/16 91v and must admit they work great! The tires are very quiet and the ride is much smoother and soft. I also replaced all the stablizer links which were causing the car to knock over bumps. With those changes, car rides like new. Has anyone tried bigger tires on their car? How do you like them?
autonomous Posts: 1,769replaced the original Dunlops at 57 K
If you mean 57K miles, the Dunlops have served you well. If you mean 57K kilometres, join the band of dissatisfied drivers. Last year, I upgraded to BFG Traction T/A 205/50/16 and have found them to be great road handlers and an excellent value. -
guyrob Posts: 5It was 57K kilometres, and you're right, they seemed to have worn out too soon. I didn't want to get the same ones, so thought I'd try Michelins. Car manufacturers should put more effort in putting better original tires on their cars, I don't know why they put tire selection at the bottom of their list. Guess it's a cost thing!
autonomous Posts: 1,769
guyrob Posts: 5I've been driving with 205/55/16 for a few weeks and still loving them and glad I upgraded. Larger tires give a more soft, quiet ride, so if that's what u want then upgrade. If you like a firmer, more road feel ride, stick with as close to original size as possible. But honestly, the larger tires really work well with the P5 and they look good too--but it's up to your taste. Handling is not comprimised with larger tires.
autonomous Posts: 1,769I did a recent round trip from Ottawa to Montreal (400 km / 320 miles) and was impressed at the 32 mpg average achieved by my five year old Protege5 as it cruised in the 110 km (70 mph) range. There were moments at 130 and beyond but those were reserved for some quick passes. The key is not driving like there is no tomorrow.
4thepups Posts: 5Looks to be in imaculate condition, but has just over 80,000 miles on it (all put on between '04 and '06!!). The deal seems fair, though - quite a bit under blue book. Would anyone buy a protege5 with 80k on it??? Please please please respond with opinions!! Thank you all in advance. PS, yes i'm new here! :blush:
erics6 Posts: 684Sure. If it's good shape. My 02 has about 73k and it's been mostly problem free. Most reliable car I've owned.
Get a mechanic to do an inspection and you'll be set to go. I think the timing belt needs to be replaced at 105k. May need some other serving, but the inspection will tell you what needs doing. -
autonomous Posts: 1,769Get a mechanic to do an inspection ...
4thepups, you may want to have the mechanic check for excessive tire and brake wear. Protege5s can be driven hard by some and need to have their disc brakes maintained regularly. If the previous owner was meticulous in servicing the P5 you'll have one sweet driving machine. Mine is nearing 5 years and feels as good as the day I bought it. -
4thepups Posts: 5you may want to have the mechanic check for excessive tire and brake wear
I will be taking it to a diagnostic center to have a complete check-up, and "hardware" will be looked over too. But i was told by the dealer that the tires and brakes have 80% left...so if he's being honest, you're making me feel really good about my decision!! -
netto Posts: 12I just had my brakes replaced and brake fluids at my local dealer. I can't help feel I got fleeced. I questioned the dealer and the main point was that I'm paying for a Mazda certified mechanic.
I have an 02 P5 with 44k on the clock, it's in great condition and I've always had the dealer work on it.
My question, is it worth going to the dealre for brakes, oils, tires? I'm worried that an auto chain will screw with something. Am I being paranoid? p.s What should 2 front pads, machine drum and oil flush cost? (Approximately) & who would you recommend to go to if not the dealer?
erics6 Posts: 684Dealer will almost always be more then an independent shop. If you find a good independent, I think that's the way to go. I had my rotors turned and them replaced alongh with pads at my local independent. It was quite reasonable. Seems like it was a couple hundred, IIRC.
I do prefer the 1-hr oil change at the dealer with a coupon over the quick change places. I personally wouldn't trust those quicky places with any of my cars -
autonomous Posts: 1,769had my brakes replaced and brake fluids at my local dealer. I can't help feel I got fleeced. I questioned the dealer and the main point was that I'm paying for a Mazda certified mechanic.
Try calling a few shops. Ask them whether they use original equipment or aftermarket parts. Ask about the warranty on the parts and labour.
I have an 02 P5 with 44k on the clock, it's in great condition and I've always had the dealer work on it.
That is a credit to you and your choice of service provider.
My question, is it worth going to the dealre for brakes, oils, tires?
I find that it's not worth worrying about the small stuff, like oil changes so I do it at the dealership. For larger jobs, I check around. I buy tires from tire shops: they have a better selection and often better prices.
I'm happy that my 2002 P5 has over 50,000 miles (over 82,000 km) on the original brakes (i.e. original pads and no rotor resurfacing). But I'm counting the days ... :surprise:

I've posted ads on cars.com, autotrader.com, every craigslist in WV (multiple times) and I haven't gotten one offer or even an email asking questions..
I know there's nothing wrong with my ads, I know I'm not asking too much, is it just because my truck is a 4 cylinder? or what gives?
I'm taking it to some dealerships tomorrow to see what they will offer me, at this point I need the cash too much and I'll take the KBB trade in of 20k.
I figured a Tacoma would be easier to sell, or maybe I've just been on this site too long and I think Tacoma's are the end all be all of the truck world.
EDIT: I made this thread to reach out the TW community for help with selling my truck. I'm open for all suggestions that could help me reach out to a larger market and get my truck sold at a decent price. That is all.

6) NES necklace
Stylish! This double-sided pendant is a chunky piece of hippy jewellery or a 'come and get me' plea for lonely, single gamers, depending on which way you wear it. Ideal for every occasion.
7) Korg DS music
If you're still in two minds about whether to pick up the Korg DS-10 music cart (which will hopefully come out in the US), check out this collection of tracks created for an online competition. They're all 100% DS-generated, and should give you a decent idea of what the Korg cart can do.
8) Monster SNES pad
Got a few sheets of MDF and some grey paint lying around? (And have a working knowledge of electrical engineering?) Why not try making a ginormous SNES controller? It's fully functional, although you might have some trouble pulling off Zangief's spinning piledriver. We're still waiting for the first giant Wii Remote mod.
9) Toad's theme
Indie band The Mountain Goats have written a song from the perspective of Toad in Super Mario Bros. It's called Thank You Mario But Our Princess Is In Another Castle, and while we don't think it's likely to make it onto the soundtrack of the next Mario game, it's a bit different from the usual videogame-related songs we hear.
10) Bag for life
Carrying a plastic bag is rapidly becoming about as socially acceptable as sharting explosively in a packed elevator, so here's a fine alternative. It's made from old T-shirts, it's loads better than those 'bags for life' that everyone winds up throwing in the bin, and it shows you care. About games.
11) Post-it Snorlax

We're not sure what we're going to make out of the pale yellow oblong ones they've given us, but we're having them anyway. Maybe we can colour some with the 200 black markers we liberated last week and make a Pikachu.

From pre-tanning to finishing, conventional leather tanning requires about 15 steps, which produce enormous amounts of wastewater and pollutants, including sulfides, chlorides, sulfates and other compounds. The new approach flips the process around and eliminates some of the steps, which results in multiple and substantial production efficiencies, the researchers say.
In the new process, for instance, prior to tanning, the skins are treated with chemicals normally used after tanning is completed. According to the researchers, the reverse process produces leather that is comparable to conventional tanning, but requires 42 percent less time, 54 percent fewer chemicals, 42 percent less energy, 65 percent less water and cuts emissions of key pollutants by up to 79 percent. The results were achieved without changing chemicals or using new ones, the researchers note.
In addition to costing less and being �greener� than conventional tanning, the reverse process is �easy-to-adopt� and could help the global industry overcome emerging environmental and economic concerns, the researchers conclude.

Review: Ratchet & Clank: Q-Force
Comment on this storyRatchet & Clank: Q-Force
PS3, PS Vita
Rating out of five: **
What happens when you cross tower defence, real-time strategy and third-person shooting?
A horrible, muddled mess appears to be the answer if Q-Force is anything to go by.
At the core of the game sits a 3D action-adventure wrapped around a tower defence set-up.
You have a number of nodes you'll need to protect from the attentions of the bad guys, and then find the enemy's nodes that must be smashed in order to win.
This balance of attack and defence is a well-trodden path, and works best in the game's multiplayer, but there's just not enough meat on the bones to tempt anyone but the most ardent fan. - The Independent

Alcoholic Gascoigne's 'life in danger'
Comment on this storyLondon – Former England midfielder Paul Gascoigne needs immediate help with his life in danger because of alcoholism, his agent said on Sunday.
The 45-year-old, who became a national hero thanks to his performances and tears as England reached the 1990 World Cup semi-finals, started shaking uncontrollably at a charity event last week and footage has appeared in the UK media.
"He won't thank me for saying it but he immediately needs to get help," agent Terry Baker told BBC radio.
"Whatever's happened to him in the five or six weeks since I saw him before Christmas he is not as well as he has been. His life is always in danger because he is an alcoholic. Maybe no one can save him – I don't know. I really don't know."
The former Tottenham Hotspur and Lazio player was treated for mental illness twice in 2008 and has long battled alcoholism since his playing career.
Baker said his break down at the charity event came after a friend had died in a medical facility while holding Gascoigne's hand.
Ex-Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel used Twitter to call on England's Professional Footballers' Association to help.
"This is not fun watching. Gazza needs help. Come on PFA and (PFA chief executive) Gordon Taylor, time to step up," the Dane wrote. – Reuters

CANTON, Miss. (AP) — Nissan Motor Co. will assemble its Murano crossover vehicle in its Mississippi plant beginning in late 2014.
Canton plant manager Dan Bednarzyk says Nissan will add 400 jobs to its current total of more than 5,000. Nissan wouldn't say how much it will spend to start making Muranos there. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant says the state isn't offering additional incentives.
